XFE Cobalt(non FFV) lost 2 mpg going from 42mpg w/ E10 to 40mpg with E44 last tank. Most people wouldn't even notice. Looking at last 10 tanks it's with in the range of all of them. My previous tanks in July resulted in 40 mpg on E45. Not sure when E70 hits the tanks might already be. So current tank % might be off.

$2.20 a gallon I'll half and half when convenient.

Any testing EPA would do is better than just knocking 30% of E0 numbers.
